Canelo Alvarez, Terence Crawford Expected Super Middleweight Title Showdown

The boxing world is gearing up for a major showdown between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford on September 13, with the undisputed super middleweight title at stake. Crawford faces the challenge of moving up two weight classes to compete against Canelo, who is favored in the fight but with close odds, reflecting the high stakes and competitive nature of the bout. Trainer Stephen Edwards and boxing legend Manny Pacquiao have both weighed in, with Edwards highlighting that anyone can be hurt in a fight despite Canelo's renowned chin, and Pacquiao advising Crawford to leverage his speed and style to overcome the size difference. Odds for the fight show Canelo as a slight favorite, yet Crawford’s height and reach advantage add intrigue to the matchup. Meanwhile, Floyd Mayweather Jr. continues to mentor rising lightweight Keyshawn Davis, who is preparing for a June fight and has expressed his eagerness to challenge Gervonta Davis in the future. Additionally, Manny Pacquiao is set to return from retirement to fight Mario Barrios in July, adding further excitement to the summer boxing calendar.
